Ancestors and Religion

The history of my family is interesting to me When looking at reasons of why some things I see It seems the German side of the family were Protestant And so couldn’t get on in the Catholic Germany rant So they immigrated to South Australia Then I look at the Irish side Who were Catholic and so were on the slide With the Protestant English in the power For in Ireland they were on the outer So they immigrated to South Australia It would seem instead of praising god And making the best of your lot Your religion becomes a tool To get what you want and make others a fool. © Paul Warren Poetry
